Meet your instructors

Taught by people who build decks for a living.

Every GemLab course is written and recorded by a working Ruby + Citrine designer — the same people producing keynotes, quarterly reports, and training templates for our clients. No outside contractors. No theory-only instructors. Just the tactics we actually use.

Frequently asked

Things people ask before they enroll.

Who's GemLab actually for?

Three audiences. (1) Individual learners who buy a course to get better at PowerPoint. (2) Internal sales and marketing teams who get team licenses. (3) Anyone we've built a custom template for who needs to learn how to use it.

Can the public sign up, or is this only for clients?

Both. Anyone can create a free GemLab account and buy a course. Internal team training and custom cohorts are quoted separately.

What software do you train on?

PowerPoint and Keynote first. Plus the Adobe stack — InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop — and Google Slides for teams that live there.

Do webinars count toward continuing education?

We'll provide a certificate of completion you can submit to your CE program. Whether it counts is up to your accrediting body.

Can you train on the template you built for us?

Yes — that's actually one of the most common engagements. We record a custom course on your master template and host it in your team's GemLab library.
